Unclear about remaining funds 

However, experts have pointed out that funds come from existing program and it is still unclear how much money is remaining to spend. On September 18, US Department of Agriculture (USDA) provided details of new rounds of payments, which will distribute whatever funds remain from a replenishment provided by Congress to farmers unable to sell ir products or who are facing higher costs.

"America's agriculture communities are resilient, but still face many challenges due to COVID-19 pandemic," Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue said in a statement.

Earlier in July, $14 billion were approved by Congress for farmers and USDA still continues to process an application for Coronavirus Food Assistance Program (CFAP) money. refore, it is unclear how much will remain out of that money to help farmers in new round. However, USDA, said that second round is aimed at "agricultural producers who continue to face market disruptions and associated costs because of COVID-19," and will run through end of 2020.
